Robocaller's method is a good way to calculate specifically the odds of all 3 being against the Reds. Calculating the odds of 3 cycles all against the same team is way trickier because of him switching teams and the unbalanced schedule. A close approximation is (1/29) *(1/29) or 1/841. So I guess the hard part is hitting the 3 cycles to begin with.

Jackson Chourio - Baseball America Hype
igor67 replied to Manty Brewer Fan's topic in Brewers Minor League Talk
I don't anticipate is graduating a lot of players this years from the minors, combined with our track record on pitching development a guy like Churrio coming along to potentially headline the farm system could produce a lot of movement up our system rankings. -
It's very sad that with an 11:30 start time. I have a solid chance that I could still catch the 9th inning after work. I haven't been one to complain too much about length of games over the years, but there was no good reason for last night's game to push 4 hours. It's getting into football territory where I can finish about a page of light reading in between plays.

On the plus side St. Louis is down 5-2 to Baltimore

Normally I'd agree about the '82 team, but this feels different. First its a even number anniversary but we are also just as much honoring the Brewers of the 2000's. With Braun retired the current team really identifies as the Stearns Era pitching and defense Brewers. So I think it feels different primarily because we are honoring a history now with multiple highlights in different eras and not just force feeding the 1 success while we all wish for more.

MN has a fair amount of field hockey at the high school level. My biggest thing is that I think the Big Ten is really underselling it's own sports by how little exposure they get on the Big Ten network.
-
We still have a lot of games left against the Pirates, Reds, and Cubs. Including 7 in Craigtember that should help the record down the stretch.
-
I believe that per those advanced statistics even after yesterday Rowdy has still been somewhat unlucky with how the hits have fallen.
-
Rowdy is definitely not the problem with the offense.

I think from a win now and a win later perspective Woodruff makes the most sense to deal and in the offseason. As it stands right now without Woodruff you could put Ashby in the rotation in his place and slide Small into Ashby's hybrid role and expect very little drop off. With the number of OF prospects and Turang, you could legitimately sit back and try and trade for BPA's available when it comes to prospects. The depth across the board makes it easier to keep looking for the big value player and not have to fill a hole (a very big benefit suddenly from that focus on flexibility with players). That in turn makes it more likely we can keep things going well even after 2023. A few years ago I would have looked at this very differently and only seen the coming departure of this glorious rotation, but I can see paths to staying very competitive by cycling through talent.

I don't have a direct answer, but perhaps supplementing your older letters with a more current letter from a colleague and not an administrator? Having interviewed my fair share of teachers over the years I can't think of a single time that age of a letter was an issue.
-
Is Woodruff now our 5th best starter?
-
Offense is always fun, but I haven't gotten anywhere close to tired of waking up everyday and going we've got an ace on the mound and a pen that will do the job.
-
Taylor!
-
That was classy defense. I'll take it
-
Rowdy!

I like Yelich in this situation, make the guy throw some strikes

Yelich: a new (old) man or a mirage?
igor67 replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Mauer is definitely an interesting comp. Sure it's early but so many of the advanced analytics on Yelich early this season really for me are strongly supporting that resurgence. MVP level is unlikely but he is swinging only at the good stuff and is smacking the ball hard a lot when he does swing. The wheels are certainly still there as well. He already has as many extra base hits as he had by the end of May last year -
It's never good look when the first question is "Was that an Onion article"
-
But did you ask Rodgers before you mock drafted a quarterback in the middle rounds?
-
Anybody happen to know what the pretourney odds were on St. Peters making it to the elite 8?
-
I want to believe, but it's also possible since it is Spring Training that pitchers aren't attacking him as aggressively. That said I'd rather see him having some success early compared to the alternative.
-
Well it looks like. I shrunk the screen size to improve the viewing.

I actually think the ROY thing is kind of an elegant way for the players to push back on service time manipulation. My first question would be how many ROY winners historically didn't get the benefit effectively of a full year when it came to arbitration/ super 2? Usually you need to be in a lot of games. I suspect it only happens some of the time, so finishing 3rd in the voting in practice will probably be less impactful overall than some might fear. Certainly someone will end up in the spot and feel slighted because they just missed out. However from the other side for your highly touted prospects even the possibility starts to affect how you manage the process. Before you could pick your date and be pretty confident you'd get most of the year out of the player and still benefit financially. Now you are in the position of deliberately making the team worse for 1-2 months and still seeing no financial benefit. I would anticipate more players will benefit from earlier service time as a result.

I'm not a huge draft follower in football, but no question if I could flip Love for a second rounder this year I'd be all over that.
